Ambassador Bonilla

Defeated CD23 Congressman Henry Bonilla has been appointed ambassador to the Organization of American States.

Sigh. Is Ciro Rodriguez really going to get a free pass? Bonilla would have a reasonably good shot at defeating Rodriguez. He barely* lost during a horrible, horrible environment in a runoff.

I'm disappointed. Bonilla should've picked himself back up, and challenged Rodriguez. He ran a bad race in 06, but there's no reason he couldn't have knocked off Rodriguez with a smart campaign.

*Well, it wasn't that bare: Rodriguez did pick up 54% of the vote.
